How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Screven

A household fan may dry exposed tile while the subfloor stays damp. Material readings show whether professional access and drying are needed.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   A meter checks the subfloor and nearby wall against comparable dry material. The technician marks the wet boundary before setting equipment.

3. Open layers holding water

   A sealed tile assembly can trap water beneath it. The technician identifies the access required for drying, with finish work addressed later.

4. Dry and verify the structure
